he written history of Afghanistan can be traced back to around 500 BCE when the area was under the Achaemenid Empire,[1][2] although evidence indicates that an advanced degree of urbanized culture has existed in the land since between 3000 and 2000 BCE.[3][4][5] Alexander the Great and his Macedonian army arrived in what is now Afghanistan in 330 BCE after conquering Persia during the Battle of Gaugamela.[6] Many powerful foreign kingdoms have established their capitals inside the modern state of Afghanistan, including the Greco-Bactrians, Mauryas, Kushans, Kabul Shahi, Saffarids, Samanids, Ghaznavids, Ghurids, Timurids, Mughals, Hotakis, Durranis, and others
